Riad El Bir, Traditional guest house in the medina of Rabat, Morocco.
Riad El Bir is a guest house in Rabat's medina featuring a central courtyard with a fountain and colorful zellige tilework throughout. Carved wooden doors and a white marble staircase showcase the artisanal details typical of traditional Moroccan design.
Originally a private residence, the building was restored in recent years to maintain its traditional architectural character. Stone arches from Salé and intricately crafted wooden marquetry ceilings reflect construction methods used in the region's past.
The riad sits within Rabat's UNESCO-listed medina, where traditional Moroccan craftsmanship remains visible in daily details. Zellige tilework and carved wooden elements reflect skills passed down through families and still practiced by local artisans.
Rooms include private bathrooms and complimentary Wi-Fi, with breakfast and table d'hôte meals provided throughout your stay. A terrace with barbecue facilities offers a comfortable spot to unwind.
The property arranges trips to the Merzouga dunes in southern Morocco for guests seeking adventure beyond the medina. Wellness services such as massages and specialized meals are offered for those looking to slow down.
